Affymetrix Human Gene 2.0 ST Array (hugene20st)
Description
This study aimed to investigate the molecular effects of non-ablative Er:YAG laser treatment using an in vitro model of the non-keratinized mucous membrane and to compare its molecular effects with other ablative and non-ablative laser systems. In dermatology, the use of non-ablative and ablative fractional lasers has become the gold standard treatment for a number of indications. Each of the individual laser types is advantageous for different types of indications due to its respective properties, but new technologies open up new fields of application for individual laser systems. Performing a comprehensive gene expression profiling we compared the gene regulatory effects of non-ablative Er:YAG laser with other non-ablative and ablative laser systems. In vitro 3D models have proven to be a reliable and reproducible tool to study the molecular biological effects of different laser settings.

Description
Efforts are increasingly aiming to develop in vitro models that can provide effective alternatives to in vivo experiments. The main aim of this study was the establishment of an in vitro model of the non-keratinized mucous membrane that can be used as a standardized tool to evaluate biological and therapeutic effects of pharmaceuticals for mucosal wound healing. Performing histological and immunofluorescence analyses with known differentiation markers we proved that our model mimics the two distinctive layers of the mucous membrane the stratified squamous epithelium and the lamina propria. In our study we used our model to investigate molecular effects of a dexpanthenol-containing ointment that is widely used in the wound treatment of the oral mucosa. For that purpose our model exhibits a unique feature in that dexpanthenol and proliferation enhancing additives that may interfere with our studies are not required for the maintenance of the model culture. After setting standardized lesions with a CO2 laser, topical treatment with the dexpanthenol-containing ointment enhanced wound closure in our non-keratinized mucous membrane model compared to placebo and untreated controls. Furthermore, microarray analysis revealed that the treatment of our laser wounded model with the dexpanthenol-containing ointment evoked an upregulated expression of various genes related to accelerated wound healing. Overall, we verified that our mucous membrane model can be utilized in future to monitor ex vivo effects of various topical therapies on mucosa morphology, physiology, and gene expression. Our findings confirm the potential of the non-keratinized mucous membrane model as an in vitro tool for the replacement of pharmacological in vivo studies regarding mucosal wound healing.

Description
We present for the first time the direct molecular effects of microneedling therapy on epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts using a standardized 3D skin model. Microneedling treatment resulted in histological alterations and changed the expression of various genes related to epidermal differentiation, inflammation, and dermal remodeling. We speculate that skin microneedling plays a role in dermal remodeling, increases epidermal differentiation, and might also have a direct effect on collagen synthesis. These findings may increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of human skin repair induced by microneedling therapy and will allow comparisons with competing applications, such as laser therapies

Description
This study aimed to investigate the molecular effects of radiation and subsequent aftercare treatment with dexpanthenol-containing ointment and liquid on newly established full-thickness 3D skin models depicting acute radiodermatitis and mucositis. We established in vitro models of the non-keratinized mucous membrane as well as normal human skin models. To mimic radiomucositis and radiodermatitis, models were irradiated with 5 Gray. Afterwards, models were treated topically every second day with dexpanthenol-containing ointment or liquid in comparison to placebo and untreated controls.

Description
Hyaluronan (HA) is a major component of the skin that exerts a variety of biological functions. Inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain (ITIH) proteins comprise a family of hyaladherins of which ITIH5 was recently described in skin, playing a functional role in skin morphology and inflammatory skin diseases including allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). The current study focused on the ITIH5-HA interaction and its potential clinical and functional impact in extracellular matrix (ECM) stabilization. Using murine skin models, ITIH5 knockdown fibroblasts and a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated HA degradation assay we proved that ITIH5 binds to HA thereby acting as a stabilizer of HA. Moreover, micro-array profiling revealed the impact of ITIH5 on biological processes such as skin development and ECM homeostasis. To understand more precisely the role of ITIH5 in inflammatory skin diseases such as ACD we generated ITIH5 knockout cells of the KeratinoSens cell line. Performing the in vitro KeratinoSens skin sensitization assay, we detected that ITIH5 decreases the sensitizing potential of moderate and strong contact sensitizers. Taken together, our experiments revealed that ITIH5 forms complexes with HA, thereby on the one hand stabilizing HA and facilitating the formation of ECM structures and on the other hand modulating inflammatory responses.
